Book ◦ Chapter

Do not let Hezekiah persuade you to trust in the LORD
This phrase reflects the Assyrian king's attempt to undermine the faith of the people of Judah in their king, Hezekiah, and ultimately in God. Hezekiah was known for his religious reforms and his efforts to restore the worship of Yahweh, as seen in2 Kings 18:3-6. The Assyrian king's message is a direct challenge to Hezekiah's leadership and spiritual guidance. Historically, Assyria was a dominant military power, and their psychological warfare included sowing doubt among their enemies. This tactic is reminiscent of the serpent's words inGenesis 3:1, where doubt is cast on God's word.

when he says, ‘The LORD will surely deliver us;
Hezekiah's confidence in God's deliverance is rooted in the covenant promises made to Israel. The phrase echoes the assurance found in passages likeExodus 14:13-14, where God promises to fight for Israel. Hezekiah's faith is also reminiscent of David's trust in God when facing Goliath (1 Samuel 17:37). The historical context here is crucial; the Assyrian siege was a real and present danger, yet Hezekiah's faith was unwavering, reflecting a deep trust in God's sovereignty and power.

this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.’
Jerusalem, the city in question, holds significant theological and historical importance as the center of Jewish worship and the location of the Temple. The phrase underscores the belief in God's protection over His chosen city, as seen inPsalm 46:5, which speaks of God's presence in the city. The prophecy of Isaiah, a contemporary of Hezekiah, also supports this assurance, as seen inIsaiah 37:33-35, where God promises to defend Jerusalem. This statement is a foreshadowing of the miraculous deliverance that would occur, as recorded in2 Kings 19:35, where an angel of the LORD strikes down the Assyrian army. This deliverance serves as a type of Christ, who delivers His people from sin and death, emphasizing God's faithfulness to His promises.

Lists and Questions

Top 10 Lessons from 2 Kings 18

Isaiah 36:18-20: How do we reconcile the Rabshakeh's claim that no god has saved any nation from Assyria with the biblical assertion that the Lord ultimately delivered Judah?

2 Kings 18:5-6 - How can we verify Hezekiah's unprecedented devotion when other kings are also praised elsewhere?

In 2 Chronicles 35:18, why does the text claim no Passover like Josiah's had been celebrated 'since the days of Samuel,' seemingly ignoring the grand Passover of Hezekiah in 2 Chronicles 30?

Ezekiel 11:12 condemns the people for not following God's statutes, yet other texts (e.g., 2 Chronicles 30) depict reforms and observance--do these accounts conflict, and if so, how?

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(30)Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord.--Hezekiah cannot save you himself (2Kings 18:29); Jehovah will not do so (2Kings 18:25). The "Jewish colouring" of the verse is not apparent to the present writer. If Rab-shakeh could speak Hebrew, he would almost certainly know the name of the god of the Jews; and it was perfectly natural for him to assume that Hezekiah and his prophets would encourage the people to trust in the God who had His sanctuary on Zion, and was bound to defend His own dwelling-place. The words are not so exact a reproduction of Isaiah's language (Isaiah 37:35) as to preclude this view.

Delivered.--Rather,given, yielded up.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 30. -Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the Lord. Rabshakeh seems to be aware that this is the argument which Hezekiah is, in point of fact, mainly urging. If at one time he had trusted in Egypt, that trust was now quite or well-nigh gone. The tone of his exhortations was that recorded in Chronicles (2 Chronicles 32:6-8), "He set captains of war over the people, and gathered them together to him in the street of the gate of the city, and spake comfortably to them, saying, Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the King of Assyria, nor for all the multi-rude that is with him: for there be more with us than with him [see2 Kings 6:16]; with him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah King of Judah."Saying, The Lord will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the King of Assyria. Hezekiah's was, in part, a general conviction that God would not forsake his people, who had recently turned to him, if not with absolute sincerity, yet at any rate with public confession of sin, and public acknowledgment of his mercies, and public profession of an intention to serve him; in part, probably, a special reliance on some definite prophecies of Isaiah, that the city should not be taken (seeIsaiah 31:4-6; Isaiah 34:20-22).
